Summary

0010380: Wearing gloves as a ghoul suggests negating claws damage.

Description

A ghoul not wearing gloves and being unarmed shows the current weapon being
-) Claws

If you put the gloves on, that changes to
-) Nothing wielded

This makes me think, that ghouls wearing gloves have exactly the same UC stats as, say, humans.
However, wiki (although unofficial) suggests, that it is not the case, and that gloves only negate claws mutation bonus, but not ghoul or troll innate claws.

An [in-game] clarification would be very welcome - either show unarmed gloved ghoul as wielding "-) Claws", or (if gloves do actually negate the bonus) reflect that in either Abilities screen (grey out the mutation when gloves are worn) or in gloves description. Maybe there is an even better place for that information, idk.
